What this game doesn't need is more terrible PR, and repeating old, well known complaints is just that!

You're right about the game not needing more terrible PR, however, it has terrible PR because of "No Community Manager" and little to no meaningful communication from the dev's. In regard to "repeating old, well known complaints" ??? If the problems had been fixed in the preceding nine months? There would be far fewer complaints.

All of this has led to "biased" moderation, deletion of posts and excessive banning....which equates to more terrible PR. The rotating oscillator boys who have taken it upon themselves to interpret the disinformation from 1C and preach it to the dissenters in the tone of a "Community Manager"? Well, they have become a divisive tool in our community.

That being said?
At least I will be joining/enjoying good company.

Community Manager, are you kidding me. I've been on every sim forums known to the internet and I heard it for the first time from Luthier. People hang on his every word, and then stab him in the back a week later.

You are an authority on excessive banning? You have not idea what your are talking about. Moderators have run their patience to new extremes NOT to ban troublemakers.

There is no new thing about "Community Manager" it's just an appended title one of the development team members acquired. The purpose is just to be liason between users and the dev team. I think the information Blacksix shared was fine, but after six years of Oleg's prognostications it really isn't well accepted here. It has remembrances of promises not kept, and the shadow left behind still looms large across this community.

What does that mean?

I'm willing to bet money that even if things get fixed the complaints won't stop.

My question......given that the state of the game has been widely aknowleged (even by the devs), and all the complaints have been noted and agreed to be valid, what exactly is the constant repetition of the same complaints meant to achieve?
